The Elm family would slowly wake up that morning as the sun rose, though the first to wake up was Richard, the family’s teen son. He wasn’t exactly happy about this day, thanks to a plan his parents, and his best friend’s parents had planned. The two families had been close for a long time now, and... they were considering something he thought was crazy!
It had been a decade since Duosion Energy had been released across the world, so to say it was normal life now was an understatement, but.... He’d be ok with their plan honestly if they had talked to him or his friend about it first. Everyone else had a natural pair, but....
That same morning, the Orleans were up and going, all except for Michele, or Milly as her friends called her. It was just this plan her and her best friend, Rich’s, families had. They wanted to all merge together in pairs, but no one seemed to asked her or Rich what they thought! Yes, they got along great, but that didn’t mean she felt good about losing her privacy, or possibly keeping Rich from being able to continue wrestling until they got use to things. It also didn’t help that everyone else had a more... natural partner.
Their little brothers could pair up, and their parents would probably pair as husbands and wives, but Milly and Rich. A girl and a boy.... She shuttered a little. But she couldn’t stop them. The family had already packed more of their things they needed, and were about ready to leave for the Elm household. The place that was about to be her home too. Fun....
About an hour later, the Orleans drove up to the Elm’s home, with the father, John, calling out to Rich’s parents, who were on the front porch.
“Max! Nichole! How are you!” Max chuckled a little, waving them over.
“Pretty good John, what about you and Sam?” Sam would nod, her usual baseball cap and pony tail easy to see.
“We’re just fine. Glad to finally be doing this. I think Greg’s pumped too.” Nichole just smiled, looking at the back seat.
“Hank is too, but Michele seems a bit worried.” As she talked, Milly and Hank would get out of the car, and watch as Gred soon ran out, followed slowly by Rich.
“Hey Milly.”
“Hey Rich.” Max just looked at everyone.
“Well come on in, y’all some before we do this.
“Sounds good to me.”
While the parents talked in the living room, Milly had asked if she and Rich could talk up in his room. Their parents somehow never seemed to mind, even with Duosion Energy existing. Then again they wanted to fuse. Milly sighed, looking at Rich’s face.
“I can tell I’m not the only one worried about this.”
“Is it that obvious?” The teen lowered his head a little. “This is just.... They didn’t even ask us. I don’t want use to get fused and then somehow mess up your music, or anything like that.” Milly looked at the guitar she’d already brought up.
“Don’t knock your singing, Rich, but I know what you mean. I’m pretty sure you’d be off the wrestling while we adjust.” They we’re both silent for a while, not sure what to say. They were both worried, but neither wanted to make their parents sad. After all, they had planned this all out.
“They’ll want use down soon to see how we do this.”
“I know....”
“So... do you have any ideas, or should I say a few?”
